Hi all

I have a very wierd situation - My intranet based application connects
to a external application via internet and gets a file as a response -
which it then sucessfully stores on the server. However I need to print
this file on a local thermal printer. My problem is that while the file
is saved on the server - it wont get downloaded to my local machine OR
PRINT command to print the server file wont work coz the server doesnt

URLConnection to the server and then trying to copy - but that wont
work either. Any ideas abt how I may get this to work.
The code I am using to copy is
